how do you place the heater in your tank? do you place it vertically or horizontally? i was thinking about placing my heater diagonally under the filter intake. would that be a good idea?
 
Make sure it is waterproof. Some are not..

Horizontal near the bottom and middle of the tank is good. Driftwood, plants or rocks can help hide it.
 
If its water-proof a horizontal or diagnal mounting would probably be best. Mounting one horizontal and low in the tank makes it easy to hide, but you should take care that it doesn't contact anything in the tank directly.
